You merged it with the ibus Wayland workaround I object. That
workaround is inconsistent with the current documentation
(im-config(8)).
You made the "IBus" startup script to do nothing in GNOME/Wayland and
to use GNOME default, which doesn't use IBus GTK immodules. I
understand that using ibus GTK immodules has issues in GNOME Wayland.
But other users in other environments have other issues when the ibus
GTK immodules are not used.
You seem to think that "IBus" is some kind of reasonable default but
it isn't. When a user choose "something" in im-config, it means she/he
wants to use it even though choosing it might be buggy in some cases.
Other choices also have issues on different locales and different DEs
but im-config should respect user's choice.
My proposal is just change the default in GNOME Wayland, if "IBus"
cannot be the reasonable default in that environment. I think
automatically setting "none" in GNOME Wayland would work.
